ID not recognized in .ascx page

I have the following code:

<%@ Control Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeBehind="DurationPicker.ascx.cs" Inherits="Permias.DurationPicker" %>
<%@ Register TagPrefix="Club" Namespace="ClubSite" 开发者_如何学编程%>
<div class="controlblock">
    <table>
        <tr>
            <td>
                Start Date:
            </td>
            <td>
                <Club:DatePicker ID="dp1" runat="server" />
            </td>
            <td>
                <Club:TimePicker ID="tp1" runat="server" />
            </td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
            <td>
                End Date:
            </td>
            <td>
                <Club:DatePicker ID="dp2" runat="server" />
            </td>
            <td>
                <Club:TimePicker ID="tp2" runat="server" />
            </td>
        </tr>
    </table>
</div>

In my code behind I have

public System.DateTime startDateTime
    {
        get
        {
            return dp1.SelectedDate.Add(tp1.SelectedTime.TimeOfDay);
        }
        set
        {
            dp1.SelectedDate = value;
            tp1.SelectedTime = value;
        }
    }

However dp1 is underlined in red, which means it can't find dp1.. why is this?

---

You need more information in the @Register directive. Where is this control located? Either an assembly reference or a src reference.

---

dp1 must be defined in your code-behind. Are you relying on the designer to create a field in the code behind? If so, perhaps it did not create the dp1 reference in the DurationPicker.ascx.designer.cs file. You will need a line something like this:

protected ClubSite.DatePicker dp1;

---

none of these seems to resolve my issue....

in my solution I have a App_Code folder and inside that I have DataPicker.cs which is under the namespace ClubSite

namespace ClubSite

            sb = new StringBuilder();
            sb.AppendLine("var __popup_panel;");

            sb.AppendLine("function __popup_clear() {");
            sb.AppendLine(" if (__popup_panel != null ) ");
            sb.AppendLine(" {");
            sb.AppendLine(" document.getElementById(__popup_panel).style.display='none';");
            sb.AppendLine(" __popup_panel=null;");
            sb.AppendLine(" }");
            sb.AppendLine("}");
